Game theory is the study of multiperson decision problems. Such problems arise frequently in competitive scenarios where knowledge is distributed, such as in economics.  For instance, oligopolies incorporate multiperson problems: each one must consider what the others will do in order to achieve success in a competitive environment. In this course of game theory we study the elements of game theoretical models, including notions of:

• Repeated games
• Non-cooperative and cooperative games
• Incomplete and complete information games
• Static and dynamic games
• Equilibrium
• Trade models
• Oligopolies
